What is Sandbar Stories?
Sandbar Stories is our family’s journey to live a little more intentionally — inspired by Jimmy Buffett and the world he created.
As we set sail from Key West through the Bahamas, the Caribbean, and beyond, we’re following the songs, stories, people, places, and adventures Jimmy helped inspire.
Along the way, Parrot Tales, our podcast, will capture the stories of the people whose lives he touched — the friendships, adventures, communities, and moments that became part of their lives.
And we’re inviting you to come along, help chart the course, and introduce us to the stories worth telling.
From all the places made up and true, these stories aren’t for us — they’re for you.
Parrot Tales is where the storytelling begins.
Born from our love of the Parrot Head community, Parrot Tales by Sandbar Stories is a podcast built on real stories from people whose lives have crossed paths with the world Jimmy Buffett helped create — through music, places, friendships, adventures, and experiences.
Meet Tom, our first Parrot Tales guest, and hear a little of his story about resilience.
Help Chart the Course
Some of the most meaningful places in our lives came from a song, a story, a concert, a book, or a recommendation from someone along the way.
As we explore the Keys, Bahamas, Caribbean, and beyond, we want you to help shape the journey.
Did Jimmy Buffett inspire you to visit a particular island, marina, beach bar, restaurant, anchorage, or hidden corner of the world? We want to know! Tell us where we should go, who we should meet, and which stories deserve to be preserved.
Together, we’ll chart the course.
